Hi, I’m Alicja a PhD student with @MortiboysLab. My project aims to investigate age-related changes in the highly specialised process of removal of damaged mitochondria, mitophagy, in human fibroblasts, induced neurons and hepatocytes using three different methods. #ECROfTheWeek

This new building will allow SITraN and the Neuroscience Institute to continue the development of a globally recognised hub of research excellence. It will lead to expanded drug discovery programmes and support further work on promising areas of research in cell and gene therapy.
Your University has been awarded a £1.5 million grant by the Wolfson Foundation to support groundbreaking neurological research. This funding will provide @neuroshef with cutting-edge facilities and equipment for their work on #MND, #dementia, and more.
